No seriously people why? It just seems in this day and age there are many young people who will rush to defend perversion but wont do anything to defend jesus? How did we get to this point in society. This same sentiment is present in our government as well in BOTH PARTIES! Why did they take the ten commandments out of public place? Why? It all seems really wierd to me.
I like evidence. . of course, there are very few people who have said they hate jesus so you can't name them since there is such a small amount.
name the actions! although honestly they don't. Most people's actions are completely independent of jesus. but name the actions.
I am assuming you mean Jesus. (Gods, please use spellcheck). This is not a "Christian nation," nor was it ever meant to be so by the founders. I don't defend Jesus because I'm not Christian. I don't want the 10 Commandments posted in public buildings because it's exclusionary, and there are many people in this country who do not follow any of the Abrahamic faiths (that would be Judaism, Christianity or Islam, because I'm fairly certain you won't get the Ambrahamic refrence). The 10 Commandments rather specifically command people to follow the Abrahamic god, and since we live in a country which does not have a state religion, it is both exclusionary and rude to post the tenets of a particular faith or set of faiths in government buildings. Common courtesy.
People who do not follow the words attributed to a man named Jesus are not expressing hatred for him; in fact they may not believe he was real. Or that he was right, even if they think he existed. The are more things, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy If he answers with "My name isn't Horatio," I'm gonna hurl
I don't think spell check works on the title but there are other ways of correcting it though. Don't forget the native americans who he believed in totally different things.
I won't forget, I come from a polytheistic background myself, though I hover somewhere between agnostic and atheist myself.
you do know our founding fathers with deists and or atheists right? Deism in the philosophy of religion is the standpoint that reason and observation of the natural world, without the need for organized religion, can determine that the universe is a creation and has a creator. Furthermore, the term often implies that this supreme being does not intervene in human affairs or suspend the natural laws of the universe. Deists typically reject supernatural events such as prophecy and miracles, tending to assert that a god (or "the Supreme Architect") has a plan for the universe that this god does not alter by (regularly or ever) intervening in the affairs of human life. This idea is also known as the Clockwork universe theory, in which a god designs and builds the universe, but steps aside to let it run on its own. Deists believe in the existence of a god without any reliance on revealed religion, religious authority or holy books. Two main forms of deism currently exist: classical deism and modern deism.
Hmmmm Interesting post. But I thought it was kinda funny how you mentioned that we dont have a state religion even though no one mentioned that but whatever. And just for the record sweetheart, I do know what the abrahamic religions are and have studied all three including Islam. But Im a practicing christian. And your wrong about the ten commandments. Those commandments are present in all religions in some way shape or form so it is correct to say that they are universal. We didnt have school shootings 50 years ago when god was allowed to be in the schools and the public places. And people say that other religions such as buddhist and stuff are offeded by the ten commandments, but why havent I met any of these people in real life? They always seem to appear in some name faceless court case that went to the supreme court or something, but not in real life.
Yes I know what a deist is and I am convinced that they were NOT so and that this is just a modern accomodation that is put into textbooks to make the founding fathers look more like modern secular men than the heavily religious and faithful men that the really were. And that most men and women were at that time both black and white and both free and slave.
Yes, the native americans did beleive in totally different things, and also got totally wiped out. So there. Jesus is the only way, not paganism.
I don't know what he hopes to accomplish here on this forum. I don't get these people that come on to this forum with these EXTREME viewpoints & obvious agendas. They're not going to "convert" or "enlighten" anyone on anything that they believe, so what's the point other than attention or to cause trouble?
i know and talk with some buddhists before they are all around they dont necessary have to wear their traditional robes to be buddhists duh explore and investigate a little more sir.
